Resource for teletherapy
I want to share the resource that the teletherapy kids liked best this week.
Teletherapy: speech therapy in the time of the coronavirus
Teletherapy is the latest addition to the field of speech therapy. It has gained popularity in recent years. It is an innovative service delivery, helping to reach people in remote areas or people who find it difficult to attend face-to-face sessions.
Teletherapy was approved by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA) as an appropriate method of service delivery in 2005, stating that "tele-practice is an appropriate service delivery model for the speech-language pathology [and audiology] professions. Telepractice can be used to overcome barriers to accessing services caused by distance, unavailability of specialists and/or subspecialists and decreased mobility".
ASHA defines tele-practice as "the application of telecommunications technology for the provision of professional services at a distance by linking doctor to client, or doctor to doctor, for assessment, intervention and/or consultation". Telepractice generally occurs in real time and "face to face" with a therapist via online video conferencing.
Due to the difficulties we are experiencing in these months with the threat of coronavirus, we have managed to implement online therapy services for our patients especially to not lose the progress we have made so far and to give continuity to the therapeutic processes.
Children participate in real-time activities that provide fun, interactive interactions for them. The session can be recorded and then viewed by parents to stay involved in their child's progress.
It should be mentioned that some users may not benefit from teletherapy in the same way as face-to-face therapy, so it is necessary to assess whether it is an effective method for each person according to their individual characteristics.
If you are interested in having us bring these sessions to your home, do not hesitate to contact us!
"Evaluation and Intervention of Stuttering" San José (1 day)
"Evaluation and Intervention of Stuttering"
Saint Joseph
Thank you for your interest in the 2019 course "New Trends in Stuttering Assessment and Intervention". This is a theoretical-practical course that presents important updates with respect to the 2018 course, especially in the area of evaluation and intervention.
This course covers 5 basic areas to understand the new treatment model for stuttering.
- Theoretical Bases of Stuttering. It is important to master the updated theoretical framework in order to understand stuttering, know what to expect, and how to accompany the person who stutters.
- Evaluation and Diagnosis of Stuttering. A properly conducted evaluation allows us to recognize the characteristics of each user, develop an appropriate intervention plan and measure progress.
- Early Intervention. Early intervention is critical to the recovery of fluidity in young children and should identify which approach to use with each user.
- Intervention in schoolchildren. When children are older, the focus changes as we must take into account that the school environment is more demanding.
- Intervention in adolescents and adults.When stuttering persists for years, we must have the necessary tools to accompany the user in his intervention.
